Dear Sir, Dear Madam,

I am using an AXC F 1152 and would like to connect it to a Profibus network.

I have found the AXL F BK PB on your website, which I believe would be suitable for this purpose.
Can you confirm this on the one hand and on the other hand explain to me how to integrate it into PLCnext Engineer.
Unfortunately I cannot find the coupler in the list of available devices.

    Hello,

    the BK PB is a ProfiBus BusCoupler.
    https://www.plcnext-community.net/en/hn-knowledge-base/hn-features-and-roadmap.html

    As the AXC F 1152 does not have a PB Master function build in you can not comunicate with this device directly.

    We are planning to add this extension module soon:
    "
    AXC F XT PB extension module:
    let a PLCnext Control AXC F xxxx work as a PROFIBUS® Master
    "

    Do you need the AXC F 1152 PLC as a PB Device or a PB Master in your PB network?

    Hello Oliver,

    Thank you very much for the extremely fast response.
    With reference to your query:
    The AXC F 1152 PLC should run as a PB Device.
